Dental Bonding

What is Dental Bonding?

Cosmetic dental bonding is a natural solution for damaged teeth. At the Anaheim dentist office of Dr. Patel, we specialize in this cosmetic treatment. Teeth bonding is very popular since it’s affordable, durable, and long-lasting. Bonding is also non-invasive, making it ideal for kids and adults with busy schedules.

Can Tooth Bonding Fix My Child’s Chipped Tooth?

For chipped teeth in kids, tooth bonding is a great fix and solution. As a cosmetic dentist, our office will apply the resin to your children’s teeth. Then we’ll shape the resin so that it resembles their natural tooth. Dr. Patel will match the resin color to your unique tooth’s color shade for perfect color blending. Please note that if your child’s teeth are still growing, a future visit will be necessary.

Is Dental Bonding Procedure Uncomfortable?

With its non-invasive nature, tooth bonding is one of the most comfortable procedures. Since there’s no drilling or surgery required, most don’t need any local anesthetic at all. Your dentist will roughen the tooth slightly and apply a conditioning liquid. Afterward, the application of resin to your tooth is made. That’s it!

Can Dental Bonding Fill Gaps Between My Teeth?

Did you know that there’s a straightforward solution to fill in unsightly teeth gaps? Small gaps can be filled in with bonding resin. Unlike other cosmetic treatments like veneers or crowns, bonding is done in 1 visit.

Can The Treatment Reshape My Teeth?

Bonding is the way to go to get amazing looking teeth across the board. The cosmetic treatment will reshape the form and redo the colors of your teeth. When you look in the mirror, you’ll see consistent looks for all your teeth. Uniform looks that will have you smiling a lot more.

Does Dental Bonding Help With Stained Teeth?

Cosmetic bonding can help with stained teeth. The bonding resin used can cover any unwanted teeth discolorations. Our office does recommend trying our teeth whitening procedure first. There will be severe cases where whitening alone won’t remove the stains. When this occurs, dental bonding will be of great use.

How Long Does The Treatment Last?

Even though dental bonding isn’t permanent, it is a long-lasting solution. With proper care and good oral hygiene habits, your bonding can last ten years or more. It’s best to use soft toothbrushes to keep your bonding lasting years. Also, we recommend avoiding acidic foods to protect the resin — acidic foods such as coffees and red wines.
